New Department of Energy Requirements

Starting October 1, 2014, all grant proposals to the DOE must include a data management plan (DMP) that conforms to their new standards. PURR has DMP resources that make it easy to meet the new requirements.

Publish Datasets with DOIs

Use PURR to publish datasets with Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) that make it easier for people to cite your data and give you credit. Purdue is a founding member of DataCite, the international agency that registers DOIs for data.

Collaborate on Research

Any Purdue faculty member, graduate student, or staff can create a project in PURR, which provides a set of tools and data storage to support research and collaboration. Invite collaborators from other institutions to join your project!
